Lot 51
Gem New $20 G44444444F. Printer fresh banknote, Fr. 2076-G $20 1988A FRN s/n G44444444F, PCGS 65PPQ Gem New. The margins on small head $20 FRNs are a bit smaller than $1 FRNs, making it virtually impossible to have huge facial margins on any $20 FRNs. This one is far above average and the inks are very bold, earning it the Gem New grade. Estimated Value $1,600 - 2,600
The number 4 has been interpreted as "soldier's marching" with a bayonet. We know of a collector, that over a fifty year period of time, assembled the only known set of small head FRNs in every denomination $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 all with the "soldier's marching" 44444444 serial number.
